Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffects of Selected Low-Risk Insecticides and Rainfall Rate on Bemisia tabaci Population and Pepper Yellow Leaf Curl Indonesia Virus Incidence on ChiliAndi Nasruddin, Iftitah Kartika Amaliah, Nurul Arfiani et al.Pepper Yellow Leaf Curl Indonesia Virus (PepYLCIV) is a damaging chili disease in Indonesia. Chili growers depend on synthetic insecticides to control the disease by suppressing its vector population, Bemisia tabaci Genn. This study assessed the efficacy of several low-risk insecticides in suppressing the B. tabaci population and PepYLCIV incidence during the dry and rainy seasons. Treatments consisted of different … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 24, Issue 2 · 26 Jan 2024 · 5,826 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlePush-pull Strategy with Trap Crops, Neem and Nuclear Polyhedrosis Virus for Insecticide Resistance Management in Helicoverpa armigera (Hubner) in CottonP. Duraimurugan, A. RegupathyInsecticide resistance in Helicoverpa armigera (Hubner) is a major threat to cotton production in India. The virus infection was found to increase the susceptibility of H. armigera to the insecticides. But, use of Nuclear Polyhedrosis Virus (NPV) on a larger scale and on cotton due to leaf alkalinity poses certain practical problems. Hence, studies were carried out to assess the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2005 · 9,098 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleImmobilized Whole Cell System with Methyl Parathion-Degrading Activity for Organophosphate Insecticide DetectionChadaporn Pootawee, Witsanu Senbua, Jesdawan WichitwechkarnAs the result of the extensive use and high contamination of organophosphate (OP) insecticides in agricultural products and the environment, especially in developing countries, a simple and convenient means for OP detection and screening was investigated. Whole cells from the recombinant clone BpGP carrying methyl parathion (MP) degrading, mpdB, gene originating from MP-degrading Burkholderia cepacia and possessing MP-degrading activity were … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 3 · 18 Sep 2018 · 7,673 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEFFECT OF DIMETHOATE (AN ORGANOPHOSPHATE INSECTICIDE) ON THE REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM AND FERTILITY OF ADULT MALE RATFerdinand Ngoula, Pierre Watcho, Augustave Kenfack et al.The pesticides are one of the most potentially harmful chemicals liberated in the environment in an unplanned manner. Dimethoate is widely used as a potent pesticide in many countries and has been shown to produce some adverse health effects. In the present study, we investigated the effect of dimethoate (an organophosphate insecticide) on the reproductive system and fertility of male … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 13 Feb 2014 · 8,595 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Effectiveness of Organotin (IV) Benzylisopropyldithiocarbamate Compounds as Insecticide Against Aedes Aegypti Linn (Diptera: Culicidae) in LaboratoryHidayatulfathi Othman, Nor Atikah Kosnon, Normah Awang, Nurul Farahana KamaludinProblem statement: The widespread use of insecticides had resulted in insecticide resistance of vectors of dengue as well as polluting the environment. Organotin (IV) compounds had the potential to be developed as the insecticides to overcome the existing problem. Approach: The aim of this study was to examine the insecticidal effects which were larvicidal and adulticidal effects of organotin (IV) … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 8 · 25 Jun 2012 · 6,980 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffect of an Insecticide Abamectin on Some Biochemical Characteristics of Tilapia Fish (Oreochromis Niloticus)Mohammed A. Al-KahtaniProblem statement: Presence of pesticide in streams and lakes is largely due to the runoff from agricultural fields. Pesticides are not highly selective but are generally toxic to many macrophytes, non-target organisms such as fish. Fish, generally accumulate contaminants from aquatic environments and have been largely used in food safety studies. Approach: The toxic effect of the insecticide abamectin on … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 15 Dec 2010 · 9,594 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsNon-Target Inhibition of Antioxidant Enzymes in Honey Bees (A. mellifera and A. florea) Upon Pesticide ExposureAmal Ahmed Berjawi, Syed Salman Ashraf, Mohammad Ali Al-DeebUnderstanding how different insecticides influence bee health is very essential. The aim of this work was to evaluate enzyme kinetics and inhibition by insecticides in Apis mellifera and Apis florea. Tested enzymes showed variable affinity to substrates. In A. florea, glutathione S-transferase (GST) showed significantly higher affinity for its 1-Chloro-2,4-Dinitrobenzene (CDNB) substrate than in A. mellifera. Carbosulfan caused the highest … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 20, Issue 2 · 10 Apr 2020 · 7,394 accessesView PDFCite
